WTB - Liftgate Latch

I need a right side latch mechanism for the lift gate on a '71 Blazer. Anyone got one for sale?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the greeting Bouncy Truck. My K5 is really a PAC NW truck. My bride and I purchased it new from Camp Chevrolet in Spokane in May '71. It has been our faithful companion ever since. Still going strong - now w/454+ and over 300K miles.

Gun Runner, are you still in the Spokane area? My '69 came from a guy in Ephrata - I know it's a ways away, but I know he spent a lot of time in the dunes at Moses Lake.

Lift gate latch

If Jamie has it, I can get it to Colorado free as I am heading that way on the 24-25th. Will be in Louisville, then Grand Lake for a week before heading back to Ky. Where in Colorado are you? Any cheep Blazers out there I can tow back?

Huck, did you see the one I posted in Colorado with a camper on it for $1500. It looks decent in the photos.

Hi Bouncy Truck - I left Spokane in '75. Have spent most time since then in CO. Both places have their ups and downs but looks like this is where I will stay. Too much "junk" to move.

Liftgate Latch

Jamie,

Thanks for digging out the latch. If you'll send me a PM containing price and your mailing address, I'll get the ball moving on my end.
